Default Victorian values

Makes you wonder what LUL/TfL's involvement is other that to slag
Metronet off now and again. Why doesn't LUL actually start to impose
some sanctions?


They do but a £1million fine is nowt to that lot, what TFL need is the
power to sack them, but the contracts were stitched up by one G Brown so
it would be far too expensive to do so.


Hey, this is the private sector - they don't do risk or investment -
that's for the public sector. I read somwhere that they (Metronet)
could do absolutely nothing, no maintenance etc and would STILL get
paid.
